Subject: ARSC Conference 2021: Call for Presentations



The Outreach Committee of the Association for Recorded Sound Collections

(ARSC) posts the following message.



--- 2021 ARSC CONFERENCE: CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS --- Proposal deadline:

January 4, 2021



The Association for Recorded Sound Collections invites proposals for presentations, posters, and panels at its 55th annual conference, to be held virtually, May 13-15, 2021.



Recognizing that the online platform for the 2021 conference offers opportunities for global participation, we invite sound recording historians, collectors, preservationists, and creators to engage on a broad range of topics that cross geographic, cultural, and collection boundaries.



ARSC welcomes proposals for presentations, papers, panels, and posters on any aspect of sound recording. We especially encourage presentations -- across all genres and eras -- that highlight musicians, performers, record labels, studios, songwriters, composers, broadcasters, and personalities.



In addition, the program committee invites proposals pertaining to:



-- Discographies, record label and/or artist histories, the life and times of lesser known formats.

-- Documenting watershed moments in history -- either recorded sound history or through recorded sound.

-- Innovative research, preservation and access projects, community-based archiving initiatives, digital humanities, cultural approaches to sound recordings, soundscapes, etc.

-- The challenges of born-digital materials and emerging sound recording formats and genres (collecting, producing, promoting, archiving, and curating).

-- Advances in audio production and preservation tools and techniques for legacy and digital formats.

-- Advancements in audio preservation techniques for physical media from cylinder to DAT.



We seek presentations and panels that are informative, display a passion for their subjects, and include compelling audiovisual content. Please share your special interests with our engaged community of collectors, historians, musicians, preservationists, archivists, and audio engineers.
